Coloring Competition Gallery

The Winner: Annika

The girl is crying because she lost her father. He went into the sun-fountain (the round structure in the lower middle) and is now at “another place”. In the spiral above the dog’s head there is an egg which the sun-child (the black figure below the girl) would like to get hold of. The blue figure above the dog is a ghost who makes the sun turn red. The ghost is the husband of “Polita” the red figure in the middle. The figure of Polita remains mysterious…

(Story told by Annika, aged 4, to her father)
